The proposals to eradicate deer in a 411-square-mile hot zone and to stop all baiting alienated many hunters. The article also reports that bowhunter Daryl Venables e-mailed from southeast Australia to tell the author that the U.S. does not control the ...
Experimental infection of white-tailed deer expressing Q95/G96 (wt/wt), S96/wt, H95/wt or H95/S96 PrPCmolecules confirmed the impact of PRNP polymorphisms on the incubation period (Johnson et al.2011). Homozygous wt/wt deer had a relatively short incubation period, succumbing to CWD with...
The action came after months of commission members and Department of Natural Resources staff hearing from hunters, residents and others interested in the long-term health of the state’s deer population, and a thorough review of the best available science on chronic wasting disease. “We hope tha...
In North America, hunting and farming industries focused on the processing and consumption of white-tailed deer (WTD) venison are particularly vulnerable to CWD prion contamination, as millions of WTD are consumed annually. Real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) is a highly sensitive assay...
Eight years after undertaking an unprecedented attempt to eradicate chronic wasting disease (CWD) from its free-ranging white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) population, Wisconsin wildlife managers are rethinking their strategies in the face of public opposition to their efforts. This article draws ...
Species richness of wood-inhabiting cryptogams was compared on fine woody debris (FWD; diameter 5-9 cm) and coarse woody debris (CWD; diameter 10 cm) logs ... N Kruys,BG Jonsson - 《Revue Canadienne De Recherche Forestière》 被引量: 592发表: 1999年 Fire and site type effects on the ...
The properties of CWD prion multimers were further characterized by sedimentation velocity in sucrose gradients to compare the effects of His-95 and Ser-96 polymorphisms on the PrPCWD multimerization states generated by Wisc-1 conversion in heterozygous deer (Fig. 4). The WT–PrPCWD from homozygo...
We have previously shown that H95 and S96 PRNP polymorphisms play a key role in CWD susceptibility, increasing survival periods and having dramatic effects on the propagation of CWD strains [16,17,18,19,20, 37]. Our results show that deer expressing the H95-PrPC presented a more limited ...
white-tailed deer was distinct from Q95G95 (wt) homozygous deer exposed to the same prion strain (i.e. Wisc-1). We have previously shown that H95 and S96PRNPpolymorphisms play a key role in CWD susceptibility, increasing survival periods and having dramatic effects on the propagation of CW...
why and how do deer and elk get CWD. 2) To study effects of different CWD-isolates and different animal species (or different host genomes) combinations on incubation periods, clinical syndromes, brain neuronal pathology and PrP amyloid distribution of CWD-infected animals. Animals in the wild ...
